From 55e263c559098cce99d8c3ef57ccc39f1d4a6848 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ross Burton Date: Tue, 12 Jan 2016 20:45:45 +0000 Subject: autotools: don't output the full config.log on configure failure The config.log written by autoconf includes many pages of useless output, followed by an obfuscated error message, and then more pages of every variable that's been set. It's only understandable if you're well versed in how autoconf behaves, and often in simple failure modes doesn't actually make it clear what the problem was. Instead of outputting the whole config.log to the console when do_configure() fails, use bbfatal_log so the human-readable configure output (not the config.log) is shown to the user, and tell the user where config.log can be found if they need it.
